Only a few games have ever impacted my life, and this was one of them. The amount of joy I felt when I finished the story, and then seeing like a montage of what their lives had shaped them to be? I can't tell you how full my heart was when I read that.
The way that you wrote these characters was so indulging, and I've already finished this game like a week ago but I still couldn't get them out of my head! You got me caring for each one of them and their loveable quirks and flaws, and their journey of self-discovery. And it's just so amazing and bizarre to me, of how much I relate to some of these characters (Iggy and Gidget, more specifically). To see that the feelings and thoughts I've kept to myself, that I sometimes feel silly or ashamed to even think about, were being reflected back to me. And all of it just feels so... validating, I guess? Idk lol I'm sorry if this is coming off across as weird already.
But anyway... I just wanna say that you have a talent for these and you're doing an amazing job, Carrot! I hope you know you have people who support you, and I wish you the very best! Stay safe and I hope you feel better soon!
